In a Perfect World

"Even if I wise up there's always a price
Serenity betrays and troubles arise

But baby, they're not here to stay

...
'Cause any day fortune may wander down, dear
And we can see a world that is milk and honey
The tapestry of life as a beautiful journey
There's always a promise of a silver lining
There's that elation of perfect timing
In a perfect world"


It talks about the rollercoaster life is. All the problems and challenges we face every day. The emotions that we feel, even when we don't understand them or even want them. And the reason why we keep trying is hope, we believe something good will come, at the right time. For me though, sometimes this is not enough.

"Serenity betrays and troubles arise" has a special meaning for me. I wish for internal peace more than I wish for anything else in this world. But serenity is never permanent, only in death, I assume.
